“Arguing that you don’t care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say.” -Edward Snowden The Supreme Court of India in the Justice K.S Puttaswamy case 2017(Aadhar case) held the right to privacy as a…

Contempt
My face was never this heavy, My questions were never this simple, My dreams were never so vivid, change wasn’t a conflict But rather a comfort, My travel was arduous, Like it had always been, paper crumpled Flying into the bin, My waiting has been drifting- Fire!

Remember
Remember That face you gazed at, On the Isle, Snow fleeting eyes, heart thumping- on a trial, breath muffled- To the chest, Like ambers- laid to rest, Standing straight, insight- Feet failing, every time, She catches an eye, A boy’s, one who’s Fainting bears turned- White unlike an hair dye, His face wrapped Like colours…

Rain
Life had been passing, like a reaper’s crop and the Earth was scorched in pain, then it happened, a gust of life beamed through the squalling Earth. The cirrus filled sky rumbled with ravenous deities, sudden bursts warned the Earth and its life. Surrender was now imminent like everything knew the halcyon days were back.…
